  1. Marc Newsom did this concept (021C) for Ford for the 1999 Tokyo Show, it could be the Ferrari's younger cousin (not a compliment to the Ferrari):
  2. Interesting information contained here, but some of it is implied and referenced in roundabout ways. Andrew Frick is president of Blue and Model e. Some particulars:
  3. If you read some of the articles about the car, there's no questioning that a tremendous amount of Ferrari engineering expertise is built into this car. The shame is that none of that will matter because Ferrari is supposed to represent the pinnacle of sexy stying and this abomination is the exact opposite. IMO this is what happens when an automotive enterprise like Ferrari is managed by 'professional' managers who have no concept of the history of Ferrari. They have demonstrably no sense of Ferrari's place in the automotive cosmos. The board of Ferrari should kick these leaders to the curb on their asses. /rant
  4. Quite an amazing thing that Toyota are apparently planning to build another plant in the U.S..
  5. Kumar said the refreshed North American products will begin to arrive roughly mid-2027 and run through the next 3 years. Now we have the timeline.
  6. Looks like decisions are being made for Valencia's future. Wonder how this will affect Ford's output in the remaining 'assembly halls'? Will plans for Bronco Sport production in Valencia be changed? So that this doesn't get buried in the quotation box, there's also this nugget in the linked article:"Geely and Ford are also reported to be exploring collaboration in software, electronics, and advanced driver-assistance systems — areas where Ford CEO Jim Farley has acknowledged Chinese automakers lead."
  7. Significant changes, hopefully this works: https://www.autonews.com/ford/an-ford-doug-field-leaving-0415/?utm_source=Sailthru&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Newsletter-ANBreakingNewsAlert-20260415
  8. There have been claims from Ford that the internal work with the F1 aero team have yielded tangible improvements in range - but not sure how much range enhancement and if that might provide an explanation to your query.
  9. The $7.5 billion figure is for the current fiscal year. The ~$16 billion figure includes total losses expected to be incurred from the current fiscal year into the next fiscal year. The OP is more correct. https://www.autonews.com/honda/an-honda-cancels-evs-0-series-acura-rsx-losses-revised-strategey-0312/?utm_source=Sailthru&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Newsletter-ANBreakingNewsAlert-20260312
  10. The retreat from EVs continues: https://www.wsbtv.com/news/local/sk-lays-off-nearly-1000-workers-georgia-plant/7HHBFCCRO5EHHMYXXBFQCIFROI/
